Subject: [PATCH 4.4 004/137] ALSA: hda/ca0132 - Avoid endless loop

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit cb04fc3b6b076f67d228a0b7d096c69ad486c09c upstream.

Introduce a timeout to dspio_clear_response_queue() so that it won't
be caught in an endless loop even if the hardware doesn't respond
properly.

Fixes: a73d511c4867 ("ALSA: hda/ca0132: Add unsol handler for DSP and jack detection")
